Chipotle Restaurant Menu Review

The best option here by a landslide is the salad at just 10 calories. The runner-up would be the tacos since it’s the second lowest in calories and carbohydrates.

Salad
420-900 cal

Brown Rice
10 cals I 2 g carbs

Tacos (3 each)
390-1140 cal

3 Hard Taco Shells
200 cals I 29 g carbs

3 Soft Flour Tortillas
250 cals I 40 g carbs

Burrito Bowl
490-910 cal

Brown Rice
210 cals I 36 g carbs

Burrito
740-1210 cal

Brown Rice
320 cals I 50 g carbs

*PRO TIP: Choosing the tacos instead of a burrito is an easy way to exercise portion control.

Protein (Choose 1)

As you can see, the carnitas and sofritas did not make the cut. The carnitas which are made from pork is high in fat. For vegetarians, black beans or pinto beans are a better source of protein than the sofritas because they have much less fat. If you choose a bean as your protein, remember that it is also a carbohydrate source, and try to avoid adding rice with it.
